7.3 Trends

• METS (Metadata Encoding and Transmission Standard)
  URL: http://www.loc.gov/standards/mets/
  The METS schema is a standard for encoding descriptive, administrative, and structural metadata regarding objects within a digital library, expressed using the XML schema language.

  RDF 1.1 Concepts and Abstract Syntax
  URL: http://www.w3.org/TR/rdf11-concepts/
  RDF is a foundation for processing metadata; it provides interoperability between applications that exchange machine-understandable information on the Web. RDF emphasizes facilities to enable automated processing of Web resources. RDF can be used in a variety of application areas.
  The broad goal of RDF is to define a mechanism for describing resources that makes no assumptions about a particular application domain, nor defines (a priori) the semantics of any application domain. The definition of the mechanism should be domain neutral, yet the mechanism should be suitable for describing information about any domain.
  

• Semantic Web Activity, W3C.
  (This site contains previous "Metadata activity statement" contents.)
  URL: http://www.w3.org/2001/sw/
  The Semantic Web provides a common framework that allows data to be shared and reused across application, enterprise, and community boundaries. It is a collaborative effort led by W3C with participation from a large number of researchers and industrial partners. It is based on the Resource Description Framework (RDF), which integrates a variety of applications using XML for syntax and URIs for naming.
